I am sure that he could not tell me my name or why I was there. He answered his personal phone and had several personal conversations, all while I waited 90 minutes to see him on my lunch break. He askedvery few questions and spoke mostly about sports and politics. I left feeling worse than before. I flew back to Boston to see my Doctor.

I have been searching for a PCP for over a year now . Today was my first visit with Doctor Young and I have finally found a PCP I can call home . I went in for my routine physical andthe nursing staff was very helpful . They wanted to make sure I wasn't going to receive any unnecessary procedures that would have led to an unexpected bill . The Doctor came in promptly after the nurse finished my examinations to go over my results . He answered any and all questions I had and gave solid well thought out advice and recommendations for all of my concerns. I did not feel rushed and most importantly he treated me like a person and not someone to check off of the list . I would recommend Dr. Young to anyone looking for a Primary Care Physician !
